Teachers should not be allowed to strike
Spoiled: Once again, our spoiled and greedy teachers want to go on strike, and for, what else, more money.
What other job is there, that you can make between $60,000 and $100,000 or more a year and be off as much as teachers are?
Every holiday under the sun, when the rest of the world is lucky enough to be given one or two days off, they're off for a week or weeks at a time.
Also, wouldn't the rest off us like to be off with our families all summer long, and be paid for being home, as they are?
The only way to stop the insanity is if you are hired as a public school teacher, you do not have the right to go on strike, period.
These people use our children as bargaining chips.
